I was rooting for Will Ross, he is from Anchorage and a really nice guy. But ending 3 minutes behind Petervary is nothing to be ashamed of. And this was Will's first try on the race.
The people who spent the night on the trail... I've done long days on the bike. But to ride 15 or 16 hours, in the winter and then bivvy? Mad respect for all those dudes.
